Desert Island Records: PUBG

Chapter 4 Food and Camp

Looking at the dilapidated iron pot and the fresh water mixed with some sand in the iron pot that was gradually boiling, Zhou Hui's body seemed to have turned into a squatting statue, petrified on the beach.

It wasn't until the hot fog rose, and white and blurred water splashed in the iron pot, that his stiff body was relieved, and he sat down on the sand.

Looking at the picture of noodles with fried sauce on the plastic package next to him, Zhou Hui could no longer have any delicious fantasies in his heart. He just felt that everything was so boring, as if the whole world was covered with a dull white layer.

But the uncommon honesty of the human body, thirst when there is no water, hunger when there is nothing in the stomach, is enough to drive away the illusions in the mind and the sadness of broken illusions.

So Zhou Hui didn't feel that this world was boring for a long time, and soon he became a tool man who only added firewood silently.

Zhou Hui smacked his chapped lips, scratched his palms with itchy fingers, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and stared at the boiling fresh water in the pot.

In reality, the fresh water in the pot is the most delicious food he needs most!
Soon, the fresh water in the pot is completely boiling!

Seeing that the fresh water was boiling, it was confirmed that the sterilization was complete. Zhou Hui was so thirsty that he couldn't wait for the hot water of more than [-] degrees to cool down naturally. He covered the flame with sand to extinguish it, hurriedly grabbed the two handles of the pot that were still intact, and turned to the pot. Go to the ocean, put the hot pot in the sea water, and use the cold sea water to cool it down.

Facts have proved that this method is correct, the temperature dropped very quickly, and after the temperature was not so high and it was confirmed that it would not cause burns, Zhou Hui tried slowly, took up a whole small iron pot with great difficulty, and poured the water tremblingly towards his mouth sent.

After smelling it, he made sure there was no peculiar smell in the water. Finally, under the orange sunlight near sunset, he drank the first sip of normal fresh water since he came to the island.

The dry mouth was immediately moisturized by the gulp of water that rushed into his mouth, which made Zhou Hui tremble implicitly, and his arms almost froze, but he didn't wait to experience this feeling carefully, drink The desire for water rushed to his head, making him unable to control himself.

Unable to control myself, I poured water into my mouth and poured it into my body!
He swallowed the water in big gulps, and even choked a few times because he drank it too quickly and didn't have time to drink it. He stopped and coughed several times.

In the end, all the water in the pot was poured into his stomach, and his lips directly touched a little grain of sand in the pot.

boom!
After drinking water happily, he threw the iron pot on the beach. Zhou Hui swayed slightly, and then sat down suddenly, sitting on the beach that was no longer as warm as before.

belch!
So full.

This time, he was full.

Zhou Hui leaned against the coconut tree, looking at the orange-dyed ocean with blurred eyes, drinking and hugging, but after a long time, he didn't recover much strength.

Therefore, based on this condition, food and shelter have become his primary needs compared to fresh water.

Even though he was used to having a full stomach full of water, his stomach still protested very quickly. Zhou Hui really had nothing to do. It seemed that even if he filled his stomach with water, he wouldn't really stop being hungry.

There is no lighting tool yet, in order to be safe, there will be no accidents, and the sky is half dark, so he has to return and can no longer explore the island

At present, the sky is not far from half-black.

What's worse is that he is still unable to hunt prey.

After a short rest, under the orange light, Zhou Hui started to walk towards the beach.

But this is not to fish, but to go to the beach reef to see if there are any shells or other food on the reef.

Thinking about it carefully, this seems to be the only predation method that can be thought of now.

When he got to the beach, there were no fish or crabs, so the luck in his heart dissipated completely, but fortunately, there were really shells on the reef, and there were a lot of shellfish!
……

One does not know what kind, it is like the shell soil of an ordinary scallop in the sea, on a not-so-big, charred reef, as the occasional waves of the waves rush to it, it keeps opening its outer fan happily Shell, to meet the sea water.

At this moment, a huge object blocked the orange light, and the shadow directly enveloped the shell.

As the huge thing stopped, two thick fingers followed, pinched the shellfish that was still open and closed, and then lifted it directly from the reef into the air, and finally, it disappeared.

In other places on the reef, there are also many shellfish of different varieties. They either close their shells tightly, or open them from time to time, like the previous shellfish, to welcome the sea water.

However, without exception, no matter what it is or what state it is, there is always a huge shadow that shrouds it and stays briefly above it.

After the huge and terrifying shadow left, the setting sun shone on it again, but it couldn't shine on the previous things anymore, it only shone on the place where the shell soil used to be, a small nest left behind.

No matter whether it is on the surface of the reef, or hidden in the bottom, the shells hidden in the shadows have not escaped this fate, and the sequence of phases has disappeared one by one.

A few minutes later, a nearby reef also ushered in this cruel fate.

Only one shellfish that was too small was shrouded in shadow, hesitated for a few seconds, and was not picked in the end.

They moved hard, climbed hard, borrowed the power of the ocean, and finally reached such a reef. They have lived here for several years, and they have survived for a long time that they themselves don't know!
until today.

To this day, it, and its brethren on the same reef, are finally terminated on this beach, which is beginning to set, spreading orange in the setting sun of the sea.

With such a vicissitudes of history, they are finally... barely able to be a human's dinner.

Under the setting sun, Zhou Hui looked like a hardworking farmer, and finally the last fan was pinched by his two fingers, and then held up to his eyes.

There must be very little meat in it, right?

With a grunt in his heart, he also threw this last piece of food into the cloth pocket wrapped by his coat, so that it and its compatriots inside were finally reunited.

He collected most of the shells on two reefs, which should have been enough for him to eat.

Then, in a fairly good mood, he started returning.

After all, now he has food and drink, a lighter and utensils, which is quite good. Next, he only needs to build a tent, and if he can handle today's night, he will complete the task.

Back under the coconut tree, Zhou Hui didn't start a fire immediately, but looked at himself first.

A black long-sleeved shirt, a pair of black trousers, and a not-so-thick coat wrapped in conch and shells.

This is already all his clothes, even the shoes and slippers are picked up from the beach.

But relying on these alone cannot cope with keeping warm at night. Although the beach is not too cold now, the sand is still warm, but at night, it is a completely different environment from now:
In the dark night, the sea is roaring crazily, and the coast no longer has the hot temperature of the day. On the contrary, it is cold, dark blue sea water rushing up to the coast, constantly relying on the powerful impulse to rush to the beach and submerge the land Everything that can be submerged on the beach!
The gentle air during the day turned into a crazy strong wind at night, which never stops in the dark night. As for him, who is wearing thin clothes, after being blown by the sea breeze at night, he can't guarantee that he will not get attached to the disease!
Therefore, he must stay far from the coast.

Now that the sun is setting and the night is not far away, it is no longer possible to start a fire on the beach. He must choose a camp now, make a tent there, and make a fire and cook food there.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Hui took the small iron pot and mineral water bottle and walked into the dense forest that was much darker than at noon. I can't see my fingers!
It was also obvious what he had to do. Now he was going to fetch water. On the way, he checked out where the camp was going to be located.

The beach is very flat, it is a good place, there is no messy vegetation, miscellaneous rocks, but the problem is that the tide will rise at night, if he dares to set up a camp there, the waves at night will dare to take him away, and come to give the sea fish a tooth sacrifice !

Also, it doesn't work too close to the center of the island. If he gets close to the island, he can't guarantee that he won't get lost, and he won't be able to return to this fairly familiar beach.

In addition, the mosquitoes in the island are not a big or small problem. The closer you are to the island, the more mosquitoes there are.
